The Ventile Barn Coat

A classic American shape in an exceptional performance fabric with military pedigree.

The barn coat is a staple of American outerwear, valued for its straightforward construction, practical proportions, and ability to move easily between work and everyday wear. We wanted to take that familiar shape and make it in a fabric we’ve spent years exploring.

The Ventile Barn Coat combines the character of an American barn coat with the natural weather resistance of Ventile®. Woven entirely from cotton, Ventile® has a dense weave that allows the fibers to swell when wet, creating an all-natural barrier against moisture while remaining breathable. Its performance comes from the construction of the fabric itself, making it weather resistant and particularly well suited to wearing throughout the day, whatever the day brings.

A corduroy collar, four-button front, and set-in sleeves reinforce the classic character of the coat, while a full lining gives it a little more warmth and weight. This is the kind of piece designed to build a relationship with everyday life.

The Ventile Barn Coat is proudly made in New Jersey at Better Team USA, our factory partner for the better part of a decade, who has helped to define our approach to premium American outerwear.

Ventile® cloth, first developed in England in 1943, continues to be the ultimate alternative to synthetic rainwear. Commissioned by Winston Churchill during WWII, Ventile® was created to help RAF Pilots survive the change in temperature during shifting altitudes. It summited Mount Everest in 1953 too, proving to be a versatile and resistant outerwear material. Today, Ventile® is woven in Switzerland and treated with a light coating of DWR for a modern twist and enhanced water resistance.
